Is Every "Leftist" Discord a Fed Honeypot?
  • I'm interested in your opinion about the term enshittification. It's a Doctrowism and even though it's a little imprecise, frequently misused/understood, a little childish, and it isn't my first choice, it's the term that took off. Do you know a better phrase? Not trying to put you on the spot. You always have good takes.

  • Alcohol fuckin sucks(CW: substance abuse)
  • I consider myself lucky that my body started outright rejecting alcohol around 25. Prior to that I was drinking about 3 liters of liquor a month. Half a beer triggers a multiple day migraine now. It's the perfect excuse to not drink as well, so if you're getting pressured feel free to use it.

  • "Look what they took from us"
  • As with many things there's a spectrum from intentional malice to not being paid to care to not even considering it.

    I think especially in laptops not having that feature is really missed by even a lot of "normal people" and the necessary hardware would cost what, a couple dollars max?

    I think the fact that other methods (WiFi direct, Bluetooth file sharing, etc) are so poorly or slowly supported, when the "how do I get this file to you?" question is so common, is evidence enough to suggest that there have been a number of conversations following this form at various companies.
    "Let's support WiFi direct".
    "Why would anyone want that when they have onedrive/icloud? wink nudge"

    I am pleased to hear it's coming with USB 4 however. Maybe the sneakernet isn't dead afterall.

  • "Look what they took from us"
  • Thank you! Same for phones. Why don't you give me 2 USB C ports if you must take away my headphone jack? What if I want to change and listen to music?

    Also it's the highest form of bullshit that I can't just plug two computers into each other with a USB C and transfer a file at like 10 gb/s.

    In fact I have a conspiracy theory that they intentionally make sharing a file directly between two devices with no 3rd parties difficult so they can control and surveil what is shared more easily.

  • Lemmy.world in shambles after slight criticism of Biden
  • isn't doing nearly enough and is way too late.

    What's the last time you could accuse a Democrat of doing "too much and too fast"? Never? Starts to paint a picture that maybe they're doing a deliberate go-slow and don't actually care about doing anything 🤔

  • That's it, Palestinians have gone too far.
  • I don't know, I suspect if a white kid threw a rock at a cop here and got shot there would be a sizable number of

    "Play stupid games.." smuglord posts

    Remember the white guy who got shot AFTER the police said on recording that he was holding a PHONE and one of the defenses used was "The phone could have been used to activate a bomb"? After that I'm ready to believe that USians would side with the cops no matter what.
